HOTEL THE BOTANIK SEWOON MYEONGDONG

8/10 Good

"We stayed 6 nights, so really appreciate the in-suite laundry facility. The breakfast was great and service was excellent. The facility is a bit old, but clean. The television is in an awkward place in our suite though. It’s in the bedroom beside the headboard. Would be nice to have some utensils, plates, but you can rent them from the hotel. Location is good. We used the subway which is a few mins walk. Overall it’s a good stay."

Novotel Ambassador Seoul Dongdaemun Hotels & Residences

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was perfectly located for what we planned to do. It is a popular hotel so we got picked form here for our DMZ tour and really close to the famous markets for our food tour. The breakfast was EXCELLENT! We have been travelling and so far this has been the best for choice. I would definitely stay here again."

Lotte Hotel Seoul

8/10 Good

"The hotel is centrally located with the Lotte shopping mall just downstairs. This is the second time we have stayed at the hotel and it is just amazing for convenience. I would say that its very expensive and we didn't opt for breakfast this time. We had to pay extra to use the traditional Korean spa so we didn't use it this time either."

Hotel Gracery Seoul

10/10 Excellent

"Me and my husband absolutely love staying at this hotel everytime we are in Seoul. Very convenient in terms of location to transportation: the airport limousine bus drops off a minute away, station access within a couple minutes, and bus stops just a few steps from the entrance of the hotel. There is also a port cochere for easy taxi or car drop offs and pick ups. There is a plethora of food options in every direction, including some nightlife one street behind the hotel. This hotel’s staff is always friendly and respectful, extremely clean, and has a nice view of Gyeongbokgung Palace and the surrounding city. The room size is enough for a couple. We got a room where the toilet room and shower room were separate so that was a plus. One of my favorite amenities that they provide are collagen eye masks which are perfect when you’ve traveled for hours and need a refresh. Highly recommend this hotel for short or long stays. We can’t wait for our next trip to the Hotel Gracery Seoul!"
